A real-time three-phase line loss calculation method for distribution network based on feeder terminal unit

Combined with the monitoring data of the new distribution network Feeder Terminal Unit (FTU), an innovative three-phase real-time line loss calculation method based on the feeder segment rather than the entire feeder as the basic calculation unit is proposed. This method uses the variable structure dissipative network theory, divides the feeder into feeder segments, and conducts mathematical modeling for each equipment in the segment based on the feeder segment. The detailed line loss of each equipment makes the line loss distribution in the system clear at a glance, which is convenient for operation and maintenance personnel to scientifically manage and carry out distribution network line loss analysis and calculation, and provides a favorable basis for further optimization of the distribution network system.
